"All the new words entering dictionaries today are not from the computer industry or Wall Street. Swimsuit makers are doing their part. Take tankini. Two years ago, no one had heard the word. Now tankini is the universally accepted term for a two-piece swimsuit that includes a tank top and a briefer bottom. This year, the new buzzword is camikini — a combination of a camisolelike top with a bikini bottom."
